If Samsung buys just Ozone for 500,000$ and MVP keeps blue, their Dota and SC2 squads I'll be happy. If everything is sold ill be sad.

Quite the opposite. At the moment every team is looking to change making the best players get more offers.

It's not like you'd have to compete to get X player against iG previously.

Last year when they performed well I am 100% sure that there was less money changing hands than there is at the moment after mediocre results.

This is exciting. I'm not at all into LoL or Dota 2, but if Samsung acquires the SC2 MVP team, that'd be way cool.

I assume that if this deal does go through, MVP Blue's going to go through some drastic changes.

What does championship class team mean?

Thats a huge amount of money, MVP must be doing something right, and LoL must be popular enough to warrant that kind of money

Championship class means a team that's at the level where they can win championships. Ozone is arguably one of the best teams in the world at the moment and they have a good chance at winning tournaments like Worlds or OGN, making them champions.

They already won one, and came 3rth in the second.. so I guess they are already a champion team right? xD.

I think i'd actually rather all the teams stay together, even under a different brand. :/

Why?


Samsung = infinite money, i don't see how this can be bad for the dota/SC2 squads, unless they're planning on disbanding everything just for the lulz.

Damn, Samsung must want them really badly.
Based on recent results it is understandable why they would want to pick up some new people, so might as well buy the entire team!

Samsung turned WCG into an esports event centering around cellphone games.

Let me just state for the record that I'm slightly skeptical this is in the teams best interests. They will suck what the soul out of it and trade it in for app sales ;p

Ummm.

Samsung has been sponsoring WCG for 13 years. How many WCG's have been mobile focused?

That's right, 0.
